I got an invite to a PLANES 3D screening and here’s the review! If you have kids 6 and under (or you feel like a 6-year old kid), it’s a fun movie with lots of flying, a little sprinkling of lessons, a few sight gags, a few bodily function jokes and action, action, action. There […]

Disney Store Light Up Tuners DJ & Wingo have returned! But only so far in the UK Disney store. You will be asked if you’re certain you want to visit the Disney store UK if you’re not in the UK. They have updated the box. Presumably this means these will be back in the US […]

The new Snot Rod with Flames is rolling out … there is already a variant “flames,” version. This is the opaque one that is more clear at the base of the flame. There is another version where the “clear yellow” version starts at base and extends all the way up. This is the production date […]

Last September, Mattel threw a launch party for Micro Drifters – it took a while but they finally starting drifting out in late Spring – and it looks like the last 3 3-packs completes nearly everything shown at the party. The remaining 2 Tuners – DJ & Boost. Kabuto & Yokoza Toon Tuners. And Red […]

The Ramone O Rama box set also features a “Yellow” Lightning McQueen on the back (it looks Green but “Quercy” who sent in the photo says it’s yellow). “Quercy” also says the Disney Store employee told him it was an exclusive and not going to be in the Disney Stores – a Disney Store D23 […]

This looks pretty cool if it works … Basically, you can fling the Micro Drifter PLANE (or CAR) up the ramp so it hits the clear loop and send it across to the track …It seems you might be sending a lot of PLANES into the air and miss the ramp entirely – or maybe […]

New Disney Store Acrylic Box Single –  Lightning McQueen Silver Hot Rod. It looks like they have raised the regular price of their acrylic boxed singles by $.45 to $6.95 each now. But others like Rip Clutchgoneski are still $6.50 – or 2 for $12. Thanks for the heads up “MackDaddy!”

The Race Off Ridge Track Set has returned (sort of) … (technically, it’s not out yet but it’s coming). It’s a hodge-podge Frankenstein track set. Yep, 2 years ago, it was called Cliffside Challenge … and apparently, if the construction of it is weak – you call it a feature – ‘breakaway cliff?’ 🙂 It […]

This seems like a fun line for younger kids, the mostly floating Hydro CARS – it now has a Deluxe “oversized” line – there are only CARS listed – Red and Mack … Where’s Hydro Frank or Hydro Bessie?!

“John H.” sends along photos of the new Micro Drifter Take Off Launcher … Packaging makes it look a tad cooler but it’s still cute. 🙂 PLANES are about the size of a CARS Micro Drifter. Which makes sense so they all work in the launcher … But “John H.” says it doesn’t exactly launch […]
